The Des Moines Bicycle Collective today announced that it will install two new B-cycle stations downtown. One station will be at DART Central Station; the second will be at the northeast corner of Second and Court avenues by the Polk County Administration Building.

B-cycle is a bike-share program with five stations and 36 bicycles in its system, spread around downtown. The Bicycle Collective also announced that its Bike Commute Challenge begins tomorrow and runs through the end of May.

The challenge encourages employees to ride their bicycles to work. For more information and a list of winning businesses from last year, click here.
